Best Books for GATE, ISRO, PSUs

Friends, I am mentioning here some good books for GATE, ISRO, PSUs and for all type of competitive exams. These books are really very nice theoretically and conceptually. Among them some of are my favorite also. I have also given the pictures of their cover page so that it will be easy for you to recognize the books.

FOR OBJECTIVE BOOK

There are many books available in market for objective type questions and answers and MCQs. I am going to mention here some good books here. First I will write some good books exam wise and then I will mention in general.

FOR GATE: GK publication's book. The objective books prepared by MADE EASY. You can also buy chapter wise study materials for GATE prepared by MADE EASY (there are separate materials available for theory and MCQs).
 

FOR ISRO: Gateway to....ISRO by UPKAR publication

FOR PSUs AND OTHER COMPETITIVE EXAMS: The above mention books are also applicable for other competitive exams and PSUs. There is no such rule that GATE questions will come from GATE study materials only.  
But still some good books for this section are M. Handa Objectice book where you will get both theory and questions, a book for conventional and objective questions and answers by A.K. Maini from Khana Publishers.
